Walker570 Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 Yes, my neighbour has/had one. Lovely to shoot as well. My 16 gauge is a Remy 1100 not quite as 'classic' but still a delight to shoot. This wet weather has stopped most of the harvesting on my areas, so waiting for a few days suny weather again. Just had a look at my 2018 diary and I shot 29 pigeons in a couple of hours this week last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Some nice shooting there, I haven't owned a 16 gauge for about 35 years. I like that the cartridges are still blue, unlike 12ga which are all over the place. A very nice gun, but the cartridges were hard to get and expensive then, I doubt things have got much better.

Big Mat Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 I've got dibs on a "Sweet 16" when the owner decides to sell it! A lovely gun to shoot, i don't think he's used it in 3 years at least now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not in perfect nick, but when he wants to sell, i'll have it restored Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
